Caro-Kann Defence B18
Notes by Andrey Mikhailovich Sumets, ChessBase Magazine #162, September 2014.
1. e4 c6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 dxe4 4. Nxe4 Bf5 5. Ng3 Bg6 6. N1e2 Nf6 7. Nf4 e5 8. Nxg6 hxg6 9. dxe5 Qa5+ 10. Bd2 Qxe5+ 11. Qe2 Nbd7 12. 0-0-0 0-0-0 13. Qxe5 Nxe5 14. h3. Preventing ... Ne5-g4.
14. ... Bc5 15. f4 Ned7 16. Bc4 Bf2 17. Nf1TN (RR 17. Be1 Be3+ 18. Bd2 Bf2 19. Be1 ½ : ½ Rublevsky – Bareev, 1st Chess World Cup, Khanty-Mansyisk 2005, match game 1)
17. ... Rhf8 18. Bb4 Bc5 19. Bxc5 Nxc5 20. Ng3 b5 21. Rxd8+ Kxd8 22. Be2 Kc7. The position is roughly equal. Black’s Knights are well-placed, that compensates double Pawns.
23. Rd1?! An useless move.
RR Possibly a psychological approach, in the style of Emanuel Lasker. After 23. Bf3 Ne6 the chances are roughly even.
23. ... Nd5 24. Rf1 f5! Now Black is slightly better.
25. Bf3 Nxf4 26. Bxc6 Nfd3+. Now the game is equal. The d-Pawn controls the center and can be a passed Pawn in the future. 26. ... Kxc6! 27. Rxf4 Re8 28. Kd2 Na4 29. b3 Rd8+ 30. Kc1 Nc3⩱ Probably Black’s advantage is not enough to win but he could try his chances.
27. cxd3 Kxc6 28. Kc2 Re8 29. Kd2 Rd8 30. Rf3= Nb7?! A strange maneuver, the Knight is well placed on c5. 30. ... Kd6 31. Ne2 Ke7 32. Kc3 Ne6=.
31. Ne2
14. ... Bc5 15. f4 Ned7 16. Bc4 Bf2 17. Nf1TN (RR 17. Be1 Be3+ 18. Bd2 Bf2 19. Be1 ½ : ½ Rublevsky – Bareev, 1st Chess World Cup, Khanty-Mansyisk 2005, match game 1)
